If you exclude models of MI which are logically incoherent and inconsistent, (such as Python's prior to version 2.3), then Python's model of MI is objectively as complete as you can get.

You seem to be assuming that "full MI" has to include a fully automatic means of method resolution. There's nothing incoherent or inconsistent about the way C++ and Eiffel do MI. The main difference is that they require you to explicitly resolve conflicts between inherited methods -- which is arguably more Pythonic than Python, since they refuse the temptation to guess. -- Greg
